Val Lee's Writings

Video of Obama with Code Pink’s Jodie Evans. There is so much that involves this organization, as you will read below my intro letter.

Dear Readers,

With all the shattering events in the news, Christians can easily wonder if the rapture is soon approaching. I do hope so, but no one knows God’s timetable. I do know things will begin to unfold when the fullness of the Gentiles comes in. God has a certain number of Gentiles to be saved before the apocalypse arrives; Romans 11:25.

Everyone can be disheartened with the Egyptian crisis of destruction. By the total grace of God, He has good news amidst it all. There is a hope coming to Egypt that will relieve all oppression. We find a spectacular promise in Isaiah 19:17-2. This text addresses the arriving period when Jesus Christ will deliverer Egyptians from their sins. He is called their “Savior” and “Champion.” They will come to know the LORD by the time of His millennial rule. Christ will say, “Blessed is Egypt My people.” He will make a highway that they might worship the LORD with the Assyrians.

Previous to this fulfillment of prophecy, Judah will become a terror to Egypt. God will bless Israel in power, as at no other time in history, being noted from verse 17. God reveals that He will discipline Egypt unto repentance for their salvation.

We know God raises up rulers and will trodden at will; Isaiah 40. He reigns as regent over all the intricate happenings of this earth.

~

I ran across the most scenic, aerial video of the gorgeous Land of Israel that I believe all will enjoy. It causes me to contemplate what the millennial might slightly resemble when peace rules Israel and all the earth:

~

Arabs control 99.9 percent of Middle East lands. Israel represents one-tenth of 1 percent of landmass. We all know Jews are not allowed in Arabia and this country would not forfeit an inch of their land to Israel. A day will arrive when the temple will be built and all landmass will transform to God’s glory.

Love in our glorious Creator who sustains the earth by His omnipotence,
Val Lee (1 John 5:10-13—the Bible) Paradise

Web gathered information on Egypt, Obama and CODEPINK, AKA Code Pink:

Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans (co-conspirator with Pentagon bombing and other bombings alongside William Ayres) met with President Barack Obama weeks after meeting the Taliban, Oct. 15, 2009. Code Pink has acted as a go-between for Hamas and Obama.

Code Pink has been to Egypt and Gaza at least five times in the past two years. Such frequent trips build networks and the opportunity for teaching tactics.

Code Pink has traveled the world, working with terrorist groups, including their Jihadists friends. They thrive on anti-American governments to meet their diabolical desires. Code Pink never protests Mahmoud Ahmadinejad when it visits him in Tehran as his guest, nor did they protest Hugo Chavez when they visited him in Caracas. And Code Pink certainly doesn’t protest Hamas, their aid benefactor in Gaza.
_______

Code Pink will not march against wealthy George Soros who owns the Democratic Party and is evil beyond belief.

Code Pink is totally anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian.

“President Barack Obama and Code Pink co-founder, Jodie Evans, accompanied by Obama’s Hyde Park friends and neighbors – the former Weather Underground terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn – organized an inside-outside game of political theater to bring pressure on the Mubarak regime to allow the aid for Hamas to be delivered through Egyptian checkpoints. On one hand, Evans and Code Pink lobbied Mubarak’s wife for assistance, as well as the U.S. embassy in Cairo. On the other hand, the group led hundreds of Western leftists in challenging the Egyptian government with boisterous street protests.”

Code Pink was not shy about its support for Hamas. The group bragged that Hamas terrorists guaranteed their safety in Gaza. At the same time, Code Pink had also allied itself with the Muslim Brotherhood. Code Pink took out banner ads on the Muslim Brotherhood’s official English language Web site, requesting jihadis to “join us in cleansing our country” of so-called war criminals, which included former President George W. Bush and wife Laura.

Wikipedia: al-Qaradawi has also made statements that some critics charge are anti-Semitic. In a January 9, 2009, sermon during the Gaza War, shown on Al-Jazeera, Qaradawi prayed (as translated by MEMRI): Oh Allah, take your enemies, the enemies of Islam. Oh Allah, take the Jews, the treacherous aggressors. Oh Allah, take this profligate, cunning, arrogant band of people. Oh Allah, they have spread much tyranny and corruption in the land. Pour Your wrath upon them, oh our God. Lie in wait for them. Oh Allah, You annihilated the people of Thamoud at the hand of a tyrant, and You annihilated the people of ‘Aad with a fierce, icy gale, and You destroyed the Pharaoh and his soldiers — oh Allah, take this oppressive, tyrannical band of people. Oh Allah, take this oppressive, Jewish Zionist band of people. Oh Allah, do not spare a single one of them. Oh Allah, count their numbers, and kill them, down to the very last one.

At the press conference held by the organizations sponsoring his visit to London, al-Qaradawi reiterated his view that Suicide attacks are a justified form of resistance to Israeli occupation of the rightfully Palestinian Territories. He has also justified his views by stating that all Israel civilians are potential soldiers, since Israel is a “militarized society.” Because of these views, al-Qaradawi has been accused by Western countries and Israel of supporting terrorism.

Gulf media is reporting that Global Muslim Brotherhood leader Youssef Qaradawi has praised the Egyptian uprising and called protestors killed in demonstrations “martyrs.” According to the report: Qaradawi recently reiterated his support for suicide bombing in Israel and expressed his desire to die as a martyr “at the hands of a non-Muslim.”

Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, an influential Muslim cleric in Qatar, has increasingly been lashing out at Jews and Israel, including calling on God to “kill them, down to the very last one.”

Qaradawi gave a sermon which aired on the Arabic satellite channel Al-Jazeera TV on January 28, 2009, in which he expressed his desire to “go to the land of Jihad and resistance.” He tells his audience, “I will shoot Allah’s enemies, the Jews, and they will throw a bomb at me, and thus I will seal my life with martyrdom.” Two days later, Qaradawi gave another speech that also aired on Al-Jazeera, where he claimed that Adolf Hitler was sent by Allah to punish the Jews.

In another sermon on January 9, 2009, Qaradawi incited violence against the Jews. “Oh Allah,” Qaradawi said, “Take this oppressive, Jewish, Zionist band of people…do not spare a single one of them. Oh Allah, count their numbers, and kill them, down to the very last one.” Qaradawi also called on Muslims to boycott Starbucks and other stores that he said support Israel.

The protests Friday in Egypt were dubbed by the Muslim Brotherhood, a “day of rage.” The Brotherhood said its members will demonstrate “with all the national Egyptian forces, the Egyptian people, so that this coming Friday [today] will be the general day of rage for the Egyptian nation.” “Days of Rage” is what the Weathermen called their violent, riotous protests in Chicago in 1969. “The question is begged: What have Obama’s allies Ayers, Dohrn and Code Pink taught the Muslim Brotherhood and other anti-Mubarak organizations in Egypt about using protests, riots and the modern social media to coordinate their actions to undermine the Mubarak regime? Being that they have common enemies–the United States, Israel, and governments allied with them–it is understandable that they would be allies. It must give them encouragement that President Obama has yet to disavow Jodie Evans and Code Pink, but instead continues to do business with them as Evans and Code Pink act as conduits between terrorists and Obama.

”What may be behind Egypt’s uprising, an Obama designed plot? Only God knows all that is manufactured behind the viewed scenes.

Ayers:
• Leader of the 1960s and 70s domestic terrorist group Weatherman
• “Kill all the rich people. … Bring the revolution home. Kill your parents.”
• Participated in the bombings of New York City Police Headquarters in 1970, of the Capitol building in 1971, and the Pentagon in 1972
• Currently a liberal professor of education at the University of Illinois.
• Holds no remorse for his undertakings.

In 1970, Ayers’ then-girlfriend Diana Oughton, along with Weatherman members Terry Robbins and Ted Gold, were killed when a bomb they were constructing exploded unexpectedly. That bomb had been intended for detonation at a dance that was to be attended by army soldiers at Fort Dix, New Jersey. Hundreds of lives could have been lost had the plan been successfully executed. Ayers attested that the bomb would have done serious damage, “tearing through windows and walls and, yes, people too.” Notably, Ayers’ fingerprints were found at the bomb-making factory, along with an assortment of anti-personnel weapons, stabbing implements, C-4 plastic explosive, and dozens of Marxist-Leninist publications.

Ayers wrote, “The GFM wanted to enter Gaza 1,400 strong to express solidarity with civil society, witness their struggle for survival and self-determination, and join in a massive peace march.” “Civil society” in this case being that fostered by Hamas in Gaza.

Protest observers said the crowd numbered less than 500, far below the organizers’ rather generous estimate.

The event was so beyond the pale that Egyptian authorities decided to break it up in a manner befitting a totalitarian Middle Eastern Islamic state, “Members of the Gaza Freedom March are being forcibly detained in hotels around town as well as violently forced into pens in Tahir Square by Egyptian police and additional security forces. Reports of police brutality are flooding a delegate legal hotline faster than the legal support team can answer the calls. The reports span from women being kicked, beaten to the ground and dragged into pens, at least one confirmed account of broken ribs, and many left bloody.”

A September 2008 WorldNetDaily report offers still more details: “Ayers made presentations to board meetings chaired by Obama. Ayers also spoke for the Chicago School Reform Collaborative before Obama’s board, while Obama periodically spoke for the board at meetings of the collaborative … According to the documents, the CAC granted money to far-leftist causes, such as the radical Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN, which …has done work on behalf of Obama’s presidential campaign.”

Ayers and his wife, Bernardine Dorhn, have three children. One is named Malik (the Muslim name of Malcolm X), and another is named Zayd (after Zayd Shakur, a Black Panther killed while driving the cop-killer JoAnne Chesimard — a.k.a. Assata Shakur — to a hideout). In December 2009, Ayers and Dohrn were among the 1,300 American and European activists who traveled to the Egypt-Gaza border to participate in a pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel demonstration led by Code Pink.

We know that the Muslim Brotherhood supports the uprising in Egypt. The Obama administration does as well. Based on the release of a secret document, it’s been learned that the United States government supported the April 6 Youth Movement – a group that played a key role in the uprising – in the form of a summit in Washington, D.C. That summit took place from December 3-5, 2008. We also know that Bill Ayers and Bernandine Dohrn were in Cairo a little more than one year later, engaging in protests while attempting to show solidarity with Hamas by entering Gaza with Egyptian protesters.

According to Dohrn, both she and Ayers were detained at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo. They, along with Code Pink, weren’t permitted to assemble the mass of people they had hoped would join them in their march into Gaza but were able to round-up a few with begrudging approval from the Mubarak administration. Waiting for them with open arms was former Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh.

Barack Obama and Bill Ayers had a significant relationship in the 1990’s, despite the president’s claim to the contrary. Sharing a business address for three years and working with millions of dollars together necessarily debunks the claim that Ayers was little more than “a guy who lives in my neighborhood.” We also know that Ayers is an avowed Marxist.

Another group Ayers and Dohrn support is the Free Gaza Movement. They – along with Code Pink founder Jodie Evans – were instrumental in organizing it. That group is credited with launching the flotilla in the spring of 2010 designed to break Israel’s blockade of Gaza.

Coincidentally or conveniently, the flotilla’s attempt to break the blockade took place on Monday, May 31st. It immediately grabbed the headlines, which had only days earlier been a burgeoning scandal that was getting dangerously close to the Obama administration. On the preceding Friday, May 28th, former president Bill Clinton took the fall in the matter involving Pennsylvania congressman Joe Sestak’s claim that he was offered a job by the administration to drop out of his primary race with Arlen Specter.

Interestingly, Turkey’s involvement in the flotilla speaks volumes with respect to apparent motives, especially in light of recent events. The Muslim Brotherhood was formed in 1928, just four years after the fall of the Turkish Ottoman empire, an Islamic caliphate devoid of nation states. Its goal is the reestablishment of that empire. As long as Mubarak’s government is in power, Egypt cannot be part of it.

The Obama campaign and its subsequent administration, has targeted America’s youth in the cause of furthering the change it seeks. Ayers has consistently done that as well; he’s a professor who founded the Small Schools Workshop. In Egypt, according to that secret document, it’s the April 6 Youth Movement – with the endorsement of the Obama administration – that is instrumental in this attempt to take down the existing government.

When contrasted with the Iranian uprising of 2009 – a revolt that sought to take down a theocratic Islamic regime and deserved strong United States solidarity – Obama was far less supportive. In recent years, relations between Iran and Turkey have become stronger as the Turkish government becomes more Islamist.

Conveniently or coincidentally, the actions – and now words courtesy of the once secret document – of the Obama administration, coupled with the actions and words of Bill Ayers indicate a desire on the part of both to usher in a new Islamic caliphate in the Middle East, assuming they’re not ignorant of the Brotherhood’s goal.

For example, Benjamin has drawn conservative criticism for her support of Hugo Chavez and her attacks on the U.S. embargo of Fidel Castro’s Cuba. David Horowitz’s FrontPageMag attacked her as “a long-time Castro acolyte,” and wrote: Many of the causes that Ms. Benjamin espouses are Communist in nature. The Washington “peace” rally at which she spoke last month, for instance, was organized by the Workers World Party, a Communist organization… In years past, she staunchly opposed US military aid to those fighting against Communist forces in Central America… She favors the creation of a government-sponsored universal health care system funded by taxpayer dollars. She exhorts the US government to lift its trade embargo against Cuba – a nation she notably lauds as a place where people have managed to “thrive despite the odds” against them.

Jodie Evans, Medea Benjamin, Diane Wilson and the radical Wiccan spiritualist known as “Starhawk” helped create CODEPINK. These women have close working relationships with the leaders of the other principal radical anti-war groups, including ANSWER (“Act Now to Stop War and End Racism”) and United for Peace and Justice, which is led by longtime socialist and Fidel Castro devotee Leslie Cagan.

The following is excerpted from Code Pink Undermines War on Terror by John J. Tierney in HUMAN EVENTS, 01/29/2007

“The women call themselves CODEPINK: Women for Peace. But don’t be fooled by all the theatricality of the ladies in pink. Behind the deceptive façade of stagey protests and moral outrage, the women running CODEPINK are serious and very radical political activists. They subscribe in varying degrees to strands of Marxist, neo-Marxist, and progressive left-wing thought, and their ideas belong to a long and complex history of radical politics going back to the early Bolsheviks. As I pointed out in my book, The Politics of Peace: What’s Behind the Anti-War Movement?, the leadership of the current anti-Iraq war movement is an outgrowth of the old Communist Party and of Communist splinter groups that emerged in reaction to Stalinism. The women who lead CODEPINK are in that tradition. Of course, CODEPINK describes itself as a “grassroots peace and social justice movement.” It was founded in November 2002 as the U.S. was about to topple Saddam Hussein, but more generally, it has aimed to coordinate feminist protests against George W. Bush and the War on Terror. The group is not just anti-Bush and anti-war, however. It is anti-everything about America — against the U.S. economic system, against U.S. foreign and domestic policies and against the American culture of “racism” and “sexism.”

CODEPINK’s leaders are not pacifists — they are revolutionaries. They are not devoted to peace — they are dedicated to political turmoil. They are not even feminists in the ordinary sense of that term. While they hold themselves out to the public as women who have left the kitchen for the street on behalf of peace, the leaders of CODEPINK are actually well-organized political operatives on a radical mission.

One need only look at the biography of 54- year-old Medea Benjamin. Born Susie Benjamin to a wealthy family, she changed her first name to that of the enraged woman in the Greek tragedy who seeks revenge against her husband by murdering her children. Benjamin’s own vengeance against America has led her to support murderous dictators across the globe. She is an ardent pro-Castro advocate, having once lived in Cuba and married a pro-Castro Cuban. For years she led guided tours to Cuba. After returning from her first trip to Cuba in the early 1980s, Benjamin told the San Francisco Chronicle that Cuban life “made it seem like I died and went to heaven.”

She favors the creation of a government-sponsored universal health care system funded by taxpayer dollars.

In the 1980s, Benjamin helped form the Institute for Food and Development Policy (IFDP), which sent aid to the Marxist Sandinistas ruling Nicaragua. During the 1990s, she and other members were field marshals during the anti-globalist riots in Seattle. In 2000, she was the Green Party candidate for the California U.S. Senate seat held by incumbent Dianne Feinstein, a Democrat. She chronicled her radical, Socialist agenda in her book, I Senator.

CODEPINK’s Jodie Evans has a pedigree equal to Benjamin’s. She is a trustee of the Rainforest Action Network (RAN), a coalition of anti-capitalist environmentalists. RAN’s co-founder, Michael Roselle, also founded the Earth Liberation Front (ELF), which the FBI has ranked alongside the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) as one of the top terrorist groups in the U.S. Evans took her most recent anti-American junket in January 2006 when she joined Benjamin and their newest convert, Cindy Sheehan, on a visit to meet Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. On an earlier trip to Iraq, Evans helped to found the International Occupation Watch (IOW) in Baghdad. With assistance from Benjamin and Leslie Cagan, IOW helps U.S. soldiers declare themselves conscientious objectors and monitors alleged American abuses in Iraq. Its declared mission is to be a “watchdog regarding the military occupation and U.S.-appointed government, including possible violations of human rights, freedom of speech and freedom of assembly.”

From the fall of 1967 through the end of 1970, nine police officers were killed and 56 were wounded, and ten Panther deaths and an unknown number of injuries resulted from confrontations. In 1969 alone, 348 Panthers were arrested for a variety of crimes.

In 1970 the Weathermen and Black Panther groups issued a “Declaration of a State of War” against the United States government, under the name “Weather Underground Organization” (WUO). The bombing attacks mostly targeted government buildings, along with several banks. Most were preceded by evacuation warnings, along with communiqués identifying the particular matter that the attack was intended to protest. For the bombing of the United States Capitol on March 1, 1971, they issued a communiqué saying it was “in protest of the US invasion of Laos.” For the bombing of the Pentagon on May 19, 1972, they stated it was “in retaliation for the US bombing raid in Hanoi.” For the January 29, 1975 bombing of the United States Department of State Building, they stated it was “in response to escalation in Vietnam.”[4]

On February 21, 1970, gasoline-filled Molotov cocktails were thrown at the home of New York State Supreme Court Justice Murtagh, who was presiding over the trial of the so-called “Panther 21,” members of the Black Panther Party over a plot to bomb New York landmarks and department stores. One bottle full of gasoline had broken against the front steps, and flames scorched the overhanging wooden frame until its contents burnt out. In addition windows were broken, and another molotov cocktail caused paint charring on a car. Painted in red on the sidewalk in front of his house was “FREE THE PANTHER 21”, “THE VIET CONG HAVE WON”, and “KILL THE PIGS”.[63] The same night, molotov cocktails were thrown at a police car in Manhattan and two military recruiting stations in Brooklyn.[64] The son of Justice Murtagh claims that the Weatherman were responsible for the attempted arson,[63] based on a letter promising more bombings sent by Bernardine Dohrn to the Associated Press in late November, 1970,[65] Some authors assume that letter is generally assumed to refer to an October bombing of a Queens courthouse.[66] NYPD Chief Detective Seedman quoted Dohrn’s December, letter as stating ‘two weeks before the townhouse explosion, four members of this (WUO) group had firebombed Judge Murtaugh’s house in New York as an action of support for the Panther 21.” [67] No one was caught or tried, for the arson attempt,[63] several sources[68][69][70][71] state that the arson attempt was enacted by the Weathermen but was considered a failure.

Qaradawi, a virulent anti-Semite is often referred to here as the most important leader of the global Muslim Brotherhood, an acknowledgement of his role as the de facto spiritual leader of the movement. In 2004, Qaradawi turned down the offer to lead the Egyptian Brotherhood after the death of the Supreme Guide. Based in Qatar, Sheikh Qaradawi has reportedly amassed substantial wealth through his role as Shari’ah adviser to many important Islamic banks and funds. He is also considered to be the “spiritual guide” for Hamas and his fatwas in support of suicide bombings against Israeli citizens were instrumental in the development of the phenomenon. A recent post has discussed a video compilation of Qaradawi’s extremist statements.
